There was an extra ordinary melting of prices in tho'Jast half-hour of today's market, following -a marking up of quotations durlnfe the previous portion ,of the session. Shortly before 2:30 prices were at the highest of ,the day, and net gains of 2 points or over bad been attained by leading stocks here and there In all the principal groups, such as Pennsylvania, Southern Pacific, Missouri Pa cific, St. Paul, Rock Island preferred, Delaware & Hudson and Sugar. In the last half-hour St. Paul dropped back abruptly 31, and some of the other stocks were carried swiftly down ward. The interpretation of the movement was believed to be that the powerful interests in the financial world which announced their organization yesterday for the protection of the mdney market desired to convey a warning that they had no intention of allowing those plans to be Interfered With. There was more or less realizing before the close by the profes sional traders who bought in yesterday's mar ket and early this morning. Previous tc the final slump, the course of prices was Quite prosperously upward. There were reports o.I assurances received by the State Department regarding the Intentions of Great Britain and Germany In Venezuela, which served to cause a better sentiment on that sub ject, but the principal influence in the rise was the reassuring effect of tho formation of the bankers' pool providing $50,000,000 for use in a possible money market emergency. The effect Tras to relieve the stock market from the rressure of liquidation. Offerings became so light, in fact, that it was easy to bid up prices on very light purchases. This was the notable case among some of the inactive stocks, among which the floating supply Is always light, especially In the Vanilcrbllt group. There was some surprise expressed, however, over the extent of the protective measures taken by the banks. There was much surmise as to a possible real need for those measures, which has not been disclosed, and a disposition to consider that the existence of such a need was Indicated by the formation of the pool. While It was recognized that no part of this fund would llkelv find Its way directly Into the stock market. ' It was considered probable that further withdrawals of loans from the stock market would bo avoided, owing to the unfavorable effect on sentiment which the heavy stock liquidation had caused. The prin cipal good which It Is hoped to achieve by the announcement of the large resources available Is upon sentiment. Part of the present strln- gency is undoubtedly due to the withholding of funds by persons who have become timid or who have determined to wait for high money rates before lending their resources. Call loan rates did not get above 6 per cent today, and ran off to below 5 per cent when the principal demands had been met. The time money market was also easier in tone, although not quotably changed. Much satisfac tion was felt because, notwithstanding tho easier tone of money, sterling exchange rates yielded an additional fraction. The stock mar ket closed distinctly weak. Bonds became firm in sympathy with stocks, but yielded at the last. Total sales, par value, $2,505,000. United States new 4s declined per cent on the last call. Negotiations were concluded today for the Immediate Importation of $25,000,000 In gold from France this week. The metal will leave Havre next Saturday, consigned to the National City Bank, of this city.
